Yesterday I went into the Biggleswade branch of Homebase to buy a storage box. Storage boxes are one of those items that no matter how many you buy, you always need another! I was going to buy a small one to put a few tools in. Then I got distracted…

I bought myself a toolbox,
For fourteen-ninety-nine!
When I got it home,
I said “I’ll write you a rhyme!”
But when I went to open it,
You should have seen my face,
For it was carrying a baby,
A bonus from Homebase!
So now they live together,
In the cupboard side by side,
Ma and baby doing well…
…along with the bucket that came along for the ride!
